There were other members of the Lu family under the eaves. Zhang Yulan introduced them to them: "This is my eldest son, Lu Changzheng. He is four years older than Xiaozi, and his wife is Chen Min. The second son is two years older than him, and his name is Lu Changtian, and his wife is Fang Cui."
After saying that, she directed to the two children, "Are you stupid? Call someone! This is your fourth aunt."
Shengli is a black boy with bright eyes, and he looks very tough. Yaya is still young, and when she sees strangers, she babbles but can't say anything!
"Aunt Si...Aunt Si!" It was the first time that Shengli saw such a beautiful person, and he felt a little embarrassed.
Jiang Yan took out the fruit candies she carried with her and gave two to Shengli. Shengli looked at the adults and didn't dare to take any.
Chen Min smiled and refused: "Sister-in-law, we are from the same family, please don't be so formal.
This candy is rare, you can keep it for yourself as a snack, come to my house and sit down, I will hang up the watermelon from the well."
Fang Cui's tone was also very kind: "Oh, I heard it from my mother yesterday, but I didn't believe it! You are just like the female star on the calendar. Go inside first. It's sunny outside, and your skin is so white and glowing. Don't get sunburned."
Fang Cui was several months pregnant and her belly was a little heavy. She was carrying a basket in her hand, which was filled with melons, beans and peppers picked from her own private plot, all of which were very fresh.
When they learned that Jiang Yan was from the city and was coming over for dinner, they were unsure.
They had come into contact with the educated youth in the village, who said that they were peasants, very poor and very arrogant.
As soon as we met today, I knew that she was easy to get along with, and most importantly, she was planning to live a life with Lu Xiao.
They have to entertain people well.
"Sister-in-law, that's not what I meant. I came here without bringing anything. You guys were busy running around, and I just ate for free. This candy is rare, but it's not as valuable as the kindness you showed me."
Jiang Yan stuffed the candy into Shengli's hand and patted his head: "This is given to you by your auntie, take it!"
These words really touched everyone's heart. This girl is so good at handling things.
Shengli looked at Chen Min, and Chen Min smiled and said, "It's given by auntie, just take it, why don't you thank auntie quickly?"
Lu Shengli then said shyly: "Aunt, thank you!"
His heart was filled with joy. He really wanted to go out and show off to his friends!
Candy, the candy given by Fourth Aunt.
They don't have it, but he does! Hehehe.
When he sticks his butt out, she knows what he is going to do. Chen Min cuts off his thoughts: "Don't take it out, eat it at home!"
No one is rich nowadays, and taking it out may easily cause public outrage. Many people are jealous of you living a good life.
Shengli was exposed for what he was thinking, and he scratched his head in embarrassment: "Mom, I know, little aunt, come and sit down."
"Yanyan, go rest inside. The tile house is cool. I'll cut some melon for you to eat!"
He brought Jiang Yan into the house, and Chen Min pulled over a long bench, which was made of wood chopped at home and painted with green wood lacquer. Over time, some places had faded.
The inner room is spacious, with a double-door cupboard on the side and a coal stove in the middle of the room.
This requires an industrial ticket, which most people don't have. In the winter, they can only burn firewood or build earth stoves to burn coal.
The coal fires are burned openly, and with doors and windows tightly closed, it is easy to get carbon monoxide poisoning. The southwest is the hardest hit area.
Chen Min brought out the melon seeds and peanuts that the family was reluctant to eat, and Lu Xiao took the knife and cut the watermelon in a few strokes.
Lu Li brought the basket in carefully. Zhang Yulan held the tin can in her hand and asked curiously, "Are these... all the mushrooms you picked? They're all over the mountain, right?"
Zhang Yulan has also picked mushrooms, and all I can say is, it all depends on fate.
The three of them hadn't been out for long when the basket exploded. What luck!
Lu Li's face was almost broken with laughter. He carefully took out a matsutake mushroom and said, "Aunt, look!"
"Oh, isn't this a matsutake mushroom? Did you pick it up?" Zhang Yulan was really surprised.
Lu Changzheng and Lu Changtian stretched their necks and gasped when they saw the half-full basket of chicken mushrooms in his basket.
"Chicken...chicken mushroom?" Lu Changzheng was so shocked that he almost screamed out. Oh my God, is that a chicken mushroom?
When did chicken mushrooms become so easy to find?
"Hiss, this is the delicious porcini, right? And this... ah... this is the dry mushroom, my god!"
This made the whole family gather around. Having been born and raised here for so many years, they had never seen a dried mushroom as big as a basin.
If you go to the black market, it's dozens of yuan per pound! Dried mushrooms are in short supply, and fresh ones taste better than meat.
Lu Li pointed at Jiang Yan and said, "She picked them all up!"
That’s right, these dozen or so dried mushrooms were all picked by Jiang Yan. She picked each one accurately, as if they were waiting for her there.
Everyone in the room looked at Jiang Yan, all exuding enthusiasm.
"Lu Xiao, I heard that you picked up several large baskets of porcini and chicken mushrooms!"
The person outside the door hadn't arrived yet, but Lu Jiandang's voice had already exploded.
He rushed in and was dumbfounded when he saw the pile of dried mushrooms on the ground.
Thinking that I was hallucinating, I rubbed my eyes with my hands and asked in a trembling voice: "Old woman, that is dried mushroom! Oh my god, am I suffering from Alzheimer's disease? Pinch me?"
He was just plowing the field when someone said that his family member Lu Xiao and his friends had picked up several large baskets of mushrooms, including rare porcini and matsutake mushrooms.
He didn't care about anything else at the moment, he dropped his plow and ran away. The sky is big, the earth is big, and mushrooms are the biggest!
Zhang Yulan felt a little disgusted by his embarrassing look and pinched his thigh.
"Ah, it hurts, stop pinching me, I'm not asking you to kill me! Huh~" Lu Jiandang's face was distorted in pain, and his eyes were full of resentment.
Zhang Yulan snorted coldly: "You asked me to pinch you. Look at your lack of ability. You are just a dried mushroom. God is feeding our Yanyan!"
Oh my god, what should I do if I marry a lucky guy?
I have lived in the Qianjin Brigade all my life, and I have never seen anyone devouring the mountains so thoroughly.
Lu Li looked as if you have never seen the world. He pulled over another basket and removed the chanterelles on the surface, revealing the Gastrodia elata and Ganoderma lucidum inside.
Now, everyone in the room: “???”
Lu Jiandang's fingers trembled as he asked, "This...is this...Ganoderma lucidum?"
Oh my God! That's not how the smoke came out. It scared his little heart so much that he almost went to see his grandmother!
Lu Xiao was somewhat proud: "Uncle, Aunt, this is also what my partner found!"
Isn't that amazing? He wanted to put his hands on his hips.
Zhang Yulan was afraid of being seen, so she slammed the wooden door shut. "Oh my god, I've lived my whole life and I've never seen Ganoderma lucidum. Gastrodia elata is hard to find! Yanyan, you're so lucky. Dry this and store it. If you can't finish it, ask your mother-in-law to sell it on the black market. She knows it!"
When she got to the end, she realized that she had let the cat out of the bag, and she quickly covered her mouth, wishing she could slap herself a few times.
Jiang Yan raised her eyebrows when she heard this. Her future mother-in-law has a hidden identity!
Lu Xiao explained: "My mother used to be a temporary worker in a pharmaceutical factory. Later, in order to prevent my second brother from going to the countryside, she gave him the job. She is a person who cannot sit still.
Look, on the surface, I make paper shells to supplement my family income, and secretly go to the black market to make extra money. Yanyan, you won’t look down on me…”
